I'd have to agree on that Tony and Ron, my 41-285 was one of the most time consuming SOB's I've had the displeasure of working on. Between the paper capacitors under every nook and cranny, the switch wafer assembly, and then the rubber covered wire, I was sometimes considering using the chassis for target practice. Luckily I obtained some great insulating material for wires, and also used shrink tubing predomintly in the radio, unsoldering only one end of each wire and stripping the mess off. This is the method I used for the switch wafer assembly, carefully holding back top wires for the deeper wires, I used my soldering iron carefully unhooking one end. Surgical clamps are great for this kind of tedious work. Oh by the way, the 37-620 isn't fun either, but after the 41-285, it didn't seem quite so intimidating. Best of luck, BOBC Cincinnati, Ohio
